silverjets:I think the best part is the running gag of Robin having been a teenage pop-star a la Alanis. I'm sure very few Americans watching the show get that they are spoofing Alanis Morissette.

Which they made REALLY obvious in this episode, even if you didn't pick up on it before, both with the Robin Sparkles/Robin Daggers transformation, which was basically what happened with Morissette for her Jagged Little Pill album.

Plus that they actually had Dave Coulier as a potential stalkee, when he WAS the dude Morissette wrote "You Oughta Know" about. Which is just icing on the delicious Priestley donut because Bob Saget's the narrator on HIMYM.
